"Comrade Bai Yang, you are in a dangerous place," Comrade Yi Jun said with concern, "please be careful."
"I don't need to." Comrade Bai Yang nodded and said, he stood up and poured tea for Comrade Yi Jun, "Today Cheng Qianfan and Liu Xia came to Wang's mansion to visit Chen Chunpu."
"But is there anything unusual?" Comrade Yi Jun asked. He knew that this should be what Comrade Bai Yang wanted to discuss with him.
"Or is that traitor Cheng Qianfan going to do something weird again?" he asked.
"Cheng Qianfan has established a relationship with Li Mingzan, the commander of the First Division of the Pacification Army of the Nanjing Reform Government." Comrade Bai Yang said, "Wang Tianhai intends to use this relationship to try to win over Li Mingzan by sending him a New Year gift in Cheng Qianfan's personal name."
"The Pacification Army is known as Liang Hongzhi's Imperial Guards, and is Liang Hongzhi's trusted unit. Wang Tianhai's attempt to win over Li Mingzuan is in preparation for the so-called return of the capital to Nanjing." Comrade Yi Jun said, "This intelligence is very important. It is very helpful for us to understand and grasp the internal struggles of these traitor factions, and to make tit-for-tat deployments."
"Cheng Qianfan is Chu Mingyu's nephew, and Liu Xia is Chu Mingyu's trusted assistant. At the same time, Liu Xia is from the Chen family, so I guess this matter was jointly promoted by Chu Mingyu and Chen Chunpu, and Liu Xia and Cheng Qianfan were responsible for the specific implementation." Comrade Bai Yang said.
"This shows that Chu Mingyu and Chen Chunpu are getting closer and closer."
"Yes." Comrade Bai Yang nodded. "Chen Chunpu is from Chen Manyu's family. Chu Mingyu actually belongs to the Chen faction as well. The two of them are natural allies."
"A little bit." Comrade Bai Yang said thoughtfully, "Although Chu Mingyu is also trusted by Wang Tianhai and Chen Manyu, the position of Vice Premier of the Executive Yuan is already the highest level. If Chu Mingyu still tries to get involved in military power, even Wang Tianhai will be suspicious no matter how much he trusts him."
"So, Chu Mingyu could have used Cheng Qianfan's personal connections to win over Li Mingzuan in private, but he took the initiative to find Chen Chunpu." Comrade Yi Jun said with a smile, "Not only that, from what you said, it seems that Chu Mingyu handed over the leadership of this matter."
"That's true." Comrade Bai Yang nodded and said, "Chu Mingyu is a very smart person."
He looked at Comrade Yi Jun and said, "In order to win over Li Mingzuan, Chen Chunpu has invested a lot of money."
As he spoke, he informed Comrade Yi Jun of the data on weapons, ammunition, and medical supplies that he had seen from the list.
"The equipment for the four reinforced platoons is full of Japanese weapons, long and short rifles, grenades, and two basic quantities of ammunition." Comrade Yi Jun pondered, "Although there is no heavy firepower such as light and heavy machine guns, this is already a good deal."
"There are also medical supplies such as alcohol, cotton wool, and bandages." Comrade Bai Yang added, "This may be just icing on the cake for Li Mingzuan in Nanjing, but our people need it."
"Are you eyeing this batch of weapons and supplies?" Comrade Yi Jun said with a smile.
"What I mean is, can the team find a way to rob this batch of supplies?" Comrade Bai Yang said.
Comrade Yi Jun did not answer the question immediately. He lit a cigarette and stood up to pace.
"Do you know when this batch of weapons and supplies will be shipped to Nanjing and through what channels?" Comrade Yi Jun stopped and asked.
"It's not clear yet." Comrade Bai Yang said. He thought for a moment and said, "According to my speculation and judgment, the transportation of this batch of materials should still be the responsibility of Cheng Qianfan."
"I'm concerned about the traitor Cheng Qianfan." He continued, "In fact, although Cheng Qianfan is only a deputy chief inspector of the French Concession Police Station, he is not very prominent among the big and small traitors of the Wang Puppet Regime."
He said to Comrade Yi Jun, "But this person has considerable power."
"Take this matter for example."
"Even for Chen Chunpu, it was not that easy for him to get four reinforced platoons of Japanese weapons."
"Moreover, the most important thing is that to transport these weapons to Nanjing, there are so many Japanese checkpoints along the way, and they were secretly delivered to Li Mingzan without Liang Hongzhi's knowledge." Comrade Bai Yang shook his head. "As for the transportation, although Chen Chunpu has a way, it is definitely not as safe as Cheng Qianfan's."
"You mean the relationship between Cheng Qianfan and the Japanese." Comrade Yi Jun nodded, "This 'young Mr. Cheng's' Jiujiu Trading is doing very well. There is even intelligence that shows -"
"——The Japanese are involved in the business of 'Mr. Cheng'. Therefore, even the Japanese side turns a blind eye to Jiujiu Trading's business. It can even be described as 'escorting'." Comrade Yi Jun took the match box handed over by Comrade 'Bai Yang', struck a match, and lit the extinguished cigarette.
"If Cheng Qianfan is responsible for transporting this batch of weapons and supplies, which route do you think he will take?" Comrade Yi Jun asked, "Waterway? Or land?"
The weapons and ammunition of four reinforced platoons, two hundred Type 38 rifles, forty Nambu pistols, as well as grenades and medical supplies were an irresistible temptation for a team that was short of supplies and weapons.
Apart from anything else, compared to the cost of destroying the enemy and seizing weapons and ammunition in a battle with the enemy, it is obviously more cost-effective to rob weapons and supplies from a "businessman" like Cheng Qianfan during transportation, and the possibility of success is also greater.
"It's hard to say." Comrade Bai Yang shook his head. "Well, I'll try to find out something."
"Okay." Comrade Yi Jun nodded, "But don't ask deliberately. Your own safety is the first consideration."
"Understood." Comrade Bai Yang nodded. He understood what Comrade Yi Jun meant. This way of gathering intelligence was to "hear whatever you hear or come across" and never take the initiative to inquire. This way of gathering intelligence was passive. The advantage was safety first. The disadvantage was that if you were unlucky and no one mentioned something or you didn't have the chance to come across relevant intelligence documents, then you would not be able to find out anything.
"Cheng Qianfan and Li Mingzan have established a relationship. It seems that this happened during his last visit to Nanjing." Comrade Yi Jun said.
"It is very likely." Comrade Bai Yang nodded. "Cheng Qianfan is a man who loves money very much. After the establishment of the Wang Puppet Regime, traitors of all sizes appeared on the scene and seized power. There will be new changes in all aspects of Nanjing. A 'businessman' with a background like Cheng Qianfan will not miss the opportunity to make a fortune in Nanjing."
He said to Comrade Yi Jun, "As soon as I have any news, I will inform the organization immediately."
"Don't force it." Comrade Yi Jun said with a serious expression, "These weapons, ammunition, and medical supplies are important, but your safety is more important."
He said solemnly, "Let alone the equipment of four reinforced platoons, even if a reinforced regiment were to be exchanged for you, Comrade Bai Yang, it would be priceless."
"I know, I will pay attention to it." Comrade Bai Yang also said with a serious expression.
He took a sip of tea and suddenly smiled and said, "This time, if everything goes well, we may have to thank the transport captain, Mr. Cheng."
"What kind of transport captain is he?" Comrade Yi Jun said with a smile, "We should thank the Wang Puppet Regime, Chu Mingyu and Chen Chunpu."
"I hope Captain Wang can be more generous than Captain Chang." Comrade Bai Yang said with a smile.
